Take the same scenario and replace "police" with "gang". So you see gang members assaulting someone, they are armed and outnumber you. Do you play superhero and attack, or call 9-1-1?

Don't try and jump someone with a tazer and a gun. Regardless of who they are. That's just stupid. If you want to play superman go ahead, no need to escalate things worse than they already are.

In the case of police tazing someone in handcuff, by all means say something, video tape, and call 9-1-1 but under no circumstances should you jump on the officer's back. Sweet Moses that's a dumb idea
Lots of misrepresentations of what I wrote. I didn't suggest a course of action, certainly not assaulting the cop. There's a lot that can be done to protect someone who's being victimized without resorting to violence.

Also, in this scenario the students out numbered the police, not vice versa.
